I'm not a phoning guy,
to be rung at anytime
would be rather unpleasant,
I prefer to be at home
and call unhappy friends
to check " How do you do? ",
I am not a phoning guy
chained up by nasty waves
and daily urges to be called,
I don't want my boss asking me
for help or Obama calling me
for some money he needs,
I need so much to hear the sea
that I threw my cellular in the sea,
may be she would call me back,
I'm not a phoning guy.

Yo Yann,

Good on you Buddy. I don't use the phone much either, and don't like people making call after call.

LOL AW, I guess some people need to talk a lot and I understand that too, I am more a listener than a talker.

thanks for the comment

Hi Suthern, I hate telemarketers, it is sometimes like a nightmare to hear their commercial dialectic, to say okay rather that go to hell, yes rather that no, they learn to convince and think they you, let see here sometolerance for working people.

thanks for the kind comment.

I understand this, dear Yann. I am not at the point of throwing the cellphone into the sea, but certainly I am kind of allergic to long telephone calls. But nevertheless the telephone and the cellphones too are a blessing mostly.

Nice slice of your personality.

Love,
Margherita

A great write! Very funny indeed. Although I have to say I do enjoy a call or two, but not during my reality shows!!

Hi Margherita, thanks for the kind comment, I am totally allergic to cellular phone but I indeed recognize it could be very helpful in cases of urgency.

2islander2 - I'd much rather talk face to face. I wonder though if I can call Obama for a bailout...
